"Had a pleasant stay"

SummerPlace Inn Destin

8/10 Good

"This was a fine hotel for a family trip. The only issue with an otherwise great room was the balcony door only had blinds so it got very bright in the mornings. Also, when we checked in, the staff was not busy but was unwilling to get us two bowls from the breakfast area for our thirsty dog that we just paid $75 to have there. Customer service with other staff was great."
